WHAT THE FUCK?!!
4 white men used a spray bottle to spray her with lighter fluid and threw a lit lighter at her while she was in her car at a stop light. They yelled the n-word before attacking her.
3rd degree burns. Face and neck.
Sometimes vigilante justice looks so enticing.
ETA: this happened in Madison WI. If you are Black, please please be wary of white racist assholes carrying spray bottles. Just one more thing for you to worry about!
I hope they set themselves on fire.
God. Fucking. DAMNITā¦
This is fucking horrible. Charge them all with murder.
Good.
We need more of that sort of incarceration.
Institutionalization can fuck up a personās life worse than prison. This is beyond fucked up. Against Humanity, indeed.
Skip to 2:45 if youāre in a hurry.
BTW: as far as I can tell, the supposed justification for the cops & ketamine thing is that itās supposed to be ātreatmentā for āexcited deleriumā.
Which is a medical condition that was (a) largely invented by cops, and (b) the existence of which is highly debatable.
Itās 21st century drapetomania, and the ātreatmentā consists of summary pharmaceutical punishment, usually in response to contempt of cop (AKA insufficient bootlicking).
500 mg ketamine IM in a 70 kg person is not a huge dose. All the rest of that shit, as well as the āindicationā for giving the drug, is serious bullshit. Ketamine didnāt kill him, cops did.
No one but a doctor or nurse should be administering ketamine to anyone.
ETA: that might have come out a bit aggressive. I appreciate you letting us know whether the dosage was excessive.
As I understand it, these were EMTās, qualified to administer the meds under a docs orders. I wonder what and how those orders arrived, and what was being ātreated.ā My point is just that they cannot throw this off on the meds. I have used that much for procedures and intubations, safely and effectively. Very unclear what the goal here was and what the hell happened. Other than a black kid was murdered by cops for no damned reason. That much is clear. The rest is details.
I had the erroneous impression it was the cops who gave him ketamine.
Unless the goal was to harrass and kill a Black man, I donāt either. From what Iāve read, the entire incident from the call to the coronerās report was an exercise in cruelty and incompetence.
Maybe we need a new thread called The Daily Karen.
Holy crap, where to beginā¦
Offensiveness of the comparison asideā¦ they do know that the goal of BLM is to protect Black lives rather than to endanger Black lives, right?
Pretty tired by this point of Mr. charter-school-pushing, corporate-friendly Blue Vest.
Sure, but not for long.
